Salman Khan's Bodyguard Pushes Away Junaid Khan At Sitaare Zameen Par Premiere
Last Updated: At the Sitaare Zameen Par premiere, a viral video shows Salman Khan's bodyguard pushing away Aamir Khan's son Junaid Khan as he tried to approach the actor. It was meant to be a celebratory evening for Aamir Khan, whose latest film Sitaare Zameen Par premiered in Mumbai on Thursday with much fanfare. But a brief moment of tension unfolded on the red carpet when superstar Salman Khan, attending the event to support his longtime friend, was surrounded by an unusually high security detail—one so vigilant that even Aamir's own son Junaid Khan couldn't get close to the actor. In viral footage circulating online, Salman is seen making his way through the crowd with a heavy security entourage guarding every step. Amid the chaos, Junaid can be seen attempting to approach the Tiger 3 star, but his efforts were swiftly intercepted by Salman's security team, who pushed him aside to maintain a safe perimeter around the actor. Despite Junaid trying to reason with the bodyguards, his access was firmly blocked. Salman, who appeared focused and unaware of the incident, continued walking without acknowledging the commotion behind him. The heightened security around Salman Khan comes in the wake of several death threats he has reportedly received over the past year, leading his team to exercise extreme caution during public appearances. Junaid Khan, who made his acting debut in 2024 with the OTT release Maharaj, followed by Loveyapa opposite Khushi Kapoor, has been carving his path in the industry. While Maharaj earned critical praise, Loveyapa, a romantic comedy directed by Advait Chandan, failed to resonate with audiences, closing its theatrical run with a modest ₹8.85 crore worldwide collection. As for Aamir Khan, he stars in Sitaare Zameen Par, a spiritual successor to his iconic 2007 film Taare Zameen Par. The newly released film, which features Genelia D'Souza in a prominent role, hit theatres on June 20 and has drawn significant buzz for its emotional depth and thematic continuity. First Published:

STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD 'I think marriage is a funny thing. Movies like Biwi No 1 (1999) and Mujhse Shaadi Karogi (2004) basically focused on that. There's a lot of (scope for) comedy, even in fights that happen among couples. 'Aapke maa ne yeh kyu bola? Khane pe kyun bola? (Why did your mom say this? Why did you invite me for food?)' There's also the saas-bahu stories, and Ekta Kapoor is making money out of just that,' said Salman while talking to Lehren.

Salman Khan once joked about father Salim Khan marrying twice: 'I think marriage is a funny thing'
Salman Khan, nearing 60, is still unmarried. He has been linked to Iulia Vantur. Salman has shared his views on marriage. He finds marriage a funny thing. His father, Salim Khan, has two happy marriages. Salman's career faces a rough patch. His recent films, including Sikandar with Rashmika Mandanna, have not performed well. Sikandar was directed by AR Murugadoss. As he nears 60, Salman Khan remains Bollywood's most iconic bachelor—unmarried, unbothered, and still delivering his trademark wit on the subject. While fans continue to speculate about his love life, the superstar often uses humour to address the ever-persistent question of marriage. From calling it a 'funny thing' to joking about his father Salim Khan 's two marriages, Salman's take on matrimony is as unconventional as his off-screen persona. During a chat with Lehren, Salman once described marriage as 'a funny thing,' noting how its everyday dynamics make for great cinematic comedy. Citing films like Biwi No. 1 and Mujhse Shaadi Karogi, he pointed out how even common spousal squabbles—like tiffs over in-laws or dinner plans—offer rich material for humor. During a chat with Lehren, he even joked that soap operas thrive on these themes, with Ekta Kapoor building an empire around saas-bahu dramas. The superstar has often questioned the idea that marriage is always a path to happiness. While many claim it's the best thing in life, he noted that in reality, several married couples don't seem as content as they appear. Taking a light-hearted dig, he brought up his father, veteran screenwriter Salim Khan, as a rare exception—someone who, despite having two wives, seems genuinely happy. Salman joked that Salim might be the only person he knows thriving in such a setup, adding that both Salma Khan and Helen not only get along but also share a good rapport. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 5 Books Warren Buffett Wants You to Read In 2025 Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo Salman Khan is currently facing a challenging phase in his career, with back-to-back setbacks at the box office.

Is Shah Rukh Khan And Salman Khan's Tiger vs Pathaan Shelved? Details Inside
New Delhi: Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan's upcoming film Tiger vs Pathaan has reportedly been shelved. This claim comes after Salman confirmed earlier this year that the project is 'not happening' at the moment. The movie is a part of the YRF spy universe. Fresh reports have suggested that Aditya Chopra is planning to revamp Tiger vs Pathaan. According to media portal 'Aditya believes the Spy Universe films are veering toward repetition and need a revitalised approach to storytelling and presentation. So he is now reevaluating its roadmap and making significant changes to future plans.' The source added, 'The aim is not to shelve existing marquee projects but to ensure upcoming films like Tiger vs Pathaan follow a new creative path. The idea is to avoid formula fatigue by infusing fresh direction and innovative storytelling styles.' An official confirmation is, however, currently awaited. YRF's spy universe kicked off with Salman Khan's Ek Tha Tiger (2012), featuring Katrina Kaif. Salman Khan played the character of a RAW agent, Avinash Singh Rathore, code-named Tiger, in the film. He later reprised his role in Tiger Zinda Hai (2017) and Tiger 3 (2023). Shah Rukh Khan, on the other hand, joined the spy world with the blockbuster Pathaan (2023). The movie, directed by Siddharth Anand, also had a special cameo by Salman Khan. Another movie that is a part of this spy genre is Hrithik Roshan and Tiger Shroff's War (2019). The line-up also includes War 2 and Alpha. Alia Bhatt and Sharvari Wagh will share screen space in Alpha. Ahead of Tiger vs Pathaa n, Shah Rukh and Salman Khan have worked in films like Karan Arjun (1995), Kuch Kuch Hota Hai (1998) and Hum Tumhare Hain Sanam (2002). Salman Khan was last seen in the AR Murugadoss directorial Sikandar. The action adventure, also starring Pooja Hegde released this year on Eid. The film, however, did not match expectations.

Box Office: Housefull 5 registers the 5th best advances for a Bollywood film in New Zealand; Kiwis remain loyal to their beloved comedy franchise
The much-anticipated Housefull 5 starring Akshay Kumar in the lead is gearing up for a good start at the global box office, with its advance bookings painting an encouraging picture, particularly in New Zealand. The fifth installment of the much-loved franchise has recorded a stellar USD 28,000 in gross advance bookings for its opening day in New Zealand. It has secured its place as the fifth-highest opener for a Bollywood film in the market. This figure propels Housefull 5 ahead of heavyweights like Tiger 3 (Saturday), Fighter (Thursday), and Dunki (Thursday), trailing only behind juggernauts such as Pathaan (Wednesday), Animal (Friday), Jawan (Thursday), and Padmaavat (Friday). This achievement is a testament to the franchise's longevity. The Housefull series has consistently struck a chord with New Zealand audiences. Its strong advance performance in New Zealand should come as no surprise, given that previous installments have also ranked among the top 10 Bollywood openers in the market during their respective release periods. Housefull 2 was the biggest Bollywood opener, Housefull 3 was the 6th biggest and Housefull 4 was the 3rd biggest. The franchise's signature mix of comedy, chaos, and chartbuster music continues to resonate with the Kiwis. Beyond New Zealand, the film is showing promising traction in other international markets. In Australia, advance bookings for the opening day have reached an impressive USD 67,000. The UAE, another key territory for Bollywood releases, is also witnessing solid momentum, with Vox Cinemas projected to sell approximately 10,000 tickets across its chain for the opening day. Meanwhile, in the Netherlands, advance bookings are trending toward a healthy 15,000 euros. These figures collectively point to a strong international opening for Housefull 5, with early estimates projecting a weekend in the range of USD 3.5 to 3.75 million. Akshay Kumar's Good Newwz may likely remain on top of this list because it had much better bookings than the upcoming release in a big traditional market like US-Canada. Coming to the movie's India bookings, Housefull 5 has sold a little over 80,000 tickets in the top national chains as at 10pm on the day before release and it should end in the vicinity of 90,000 tickets if the current trend holds up for the next couple of hours.
